Best lighting mods i did were mgf rear view mirror with twin map lights, interior light delay relay and twin rear fog. To top it off a set of mk3 spots lit up the twisties like daylight. I miss them! But they only look any good on mk3's.

Location: Blackburn, Lancashire		Oh and yeh i will do what you asked i.e from inside the car... Mine are just cleaner whiter light they are the Standard 60w/55 output but you can go further up to 100w I think the only thing you would also have to change in addition is the fuse rating I would have to do my WATTS law calculation give you the right number you'd need.

Location: Carmarthenshire, Wales		Cheers, appreciate it. I have uprated (whiter) bulbs but they don't look as bright as yours so would be nice to be able to compare them with yours. I will have a look at those links now too, thanks.

Lol. I like it.

Dan only wants his lights brighter so the sheep are easier to stun. Surprised ding an dean havnt got set already.

Youve got a nice base, got loads of potential. Is it a base model or does it have cdl, cigi lighter and glovebox light. Those were the luxuries

No rev counter, pretty basic really.. Two tone seating

Location: Blackburn, Lancashire		This is the drivers perspective with the lights on I will admit in the pic they do not look that bright but in real life you can see a lot more... Thank iPhone 4 for that one haha plus the headlight alignment is not correct all over the place to be true.. The main beam pic kinda tells me I need better lights so I am going for H4 SMD headlights instead...

Dip and Main beam pics included

Location: Blackburn, Lancashire		I am still working out a solution to the SMD lighting in the roof lining it is only working either on permanent setting or the door setting by changing the wiring around.. Currently working on how to get it to light on both I am studying auto electrics so I should have it cracked soon enough.... We shall see keep you guys updated because it looks great and its much easier to see things at night...

Location: Bromley, Kent		Make sure if you see a R100 with air bag etc... To remove it all the loom for it. (Take 10 mins) Your much better off having a proper wired in MGF airbag than a dead one, just in case.

If bt, just save the parts off the R100 and flog on here.

Consists of;
-Airbag loom to fusebox from column
-Rotary coupler
-Plastic 'plate' with the legs the coupler attaches to
-Airbag ECU and wiring from inside steering wheel.
